I trained from the age of 6, studying Shotokan. I won the British National Championships in 1992. I'm now 43 and done many dangerous things in the service of my country and protecting people. It has saved my life many times! I found the best defence for a knife attack is to run! If you cannot and you have chance, take your coat off or shirt and rap it around your hand.
"Punching, striking and kicking are not the only methods in karate. Throwing techniques and submission holds are included. All these techniques should be studied in basic kata." - GICHIN FUNAKOSHI (1868-1957)
It's weird to me why people think Karate isn't effective for defense. It's like boxing but fancier. That's how I perceive it. Before I ever did Karate, I couldn't through a punch for the life of me. After attending Karate classes achieving my Green Belt. I was able to throw a variety of accurate strikes extremely fast and snappy. And was able to efficiently block and break out of holds such as choke holds, death grips, and weapon disarming. Karate has definitely helped me in the criminal justice sector. I do private security and we are often unarmed, so my martial arts training has really helped a lot. Both with combative training and confidence in protecting people. Thrust punches are my favorite, most direct, fast, and quick way to end a deadly encounter with a criminal.
i think its because the general public never see the more advanced techniques and in practice everything is done slow and methodical, and in a real fight people dont punch like they do in karate kata, i do believe some martial arts will not be any use in the real world, but equally there are others that will be effective but at the end of the day it still comes down to the practioner.
Todays warrior through modern living has so many back and knee problems. He can't do half of the things you see here. That's why so many turn to cardio kickboxing instead.

Bom dia a todos os que curtem o Karate , independente dos estilos. Foi feito uma pesquisa e estudo que o Karate e a modalidade com golpes mais agressivos.
Those old sensei where tough, tougher then todays bull shit martial arts which todays is mma Today its about money, no honor in that. MMA isnt a martial art its a sport.
@@jason75 Ok, so if you really believe that , which I dont think you do, then why don't you go to a legit MMA gym and put out a challenge against a professional fighter. Anything goes except eye gouging. Get it on video and post it for everyone to see. Karate is decent for self defense IF it's practiced full contact with resistance and pressure tested. Problem is that the vast majority of karate schools are badly watered down and spar light contact to prepare for goofy light contact tournaments (which develop dangerous habits). The most effective striking art in the world is authentic Muay Thai.
@@josephperkins4080 agree but in the U.S. anyway, that is what Shotokan has become.....all about sport and how to score a point …….I asked my Shotokan teacher why he concentrated so much on points and tournaments and so little on what is shown in this video....his answer was that if he taught traditional Shotokan karate in the U.S. he would have very few students.....

The Karate punch is like an iron bar wham, where as a Jeet kune do punch is like an iron chain with an iron ball attached to it and it goes waang. And is more destructive.
Trained from 72 to 80 . Still hit my Maki board at age 78.Gets the breathing going and just like to know I can still punch hard If anyone wants to deprive me of my pension.lol

I started practicing 37 years ago :-). whether boy, girl, woman or man. we are karate-ka´s as well. :-) But despite styles --> Karatedoo - ichiroo, which can be translated to the way of the empty hand - one way
Estou hoje muito decepcionado com esse novo karatê que criaram, voltado para competição, karatê é tradicional, é artes marciais. Portanto karatê olímpico para mim não existe
So many of you speak non-sense: "...pre-arranged, not effective, rigid, unnatural...." Go and learn MMA, Craw Maga or better join a fighting club in some tough neighborhood. Those are the real-deal! Good, strong and very effective street fighting systems. Don't waste time on something that you cannot comprehend but above all you should not show stupidity commenting about an incredible art-form which, the ultimate goal, you don't know anything about.....
krav maga for real life situations. you should watch the krav maga course the israeli army uses. it's built to be unfair,only way to pass is to fight dirty and make any and everything a weapon. you see 5 against 1 situations, still havent seen a good outcome on video for that one but i suppose it shows you wh as t can happen if seperated from your squad
This brings back memories of my teen days with my father in the dojo. Thank you I'm sharing it with my son. I'm 55 now.

Good.idea
I started at the age of 11 and I am 46. I started in the summer 1983. You must have started in 1981??
Henry Peter what about just kicking them in the solar plexus and running away?
Absolutely!
never read so much rubbish in my life
I believe shotokan karate is one of the most underrated forms of karate.
Not all flashy and stuff, they actually teach you how to defend yourself.
"Punching, striking and kicking are not the only methods in karate.

Karate, empty hand. Perfections is what needed on every skill you acquire. Long live all sensei of karate we appreciate your efforts.
*Im a former shotokan student and ive participated competitions in my younger self. Rest in peace to my sensei.*

Karate, my way of life. Traditional best.

This is what Karate is truly about! The world just doesn’t get it today.
What do the old folks suggest for me? I have done taekwondo, now doing shotokan karate yellow belt currently.
I received my Shodan from Sensei Nishiyama, signed off by Nakayama sensei. A great honor
I went to Sensei's dojo.I came out a better karateka. Hai.
Shotokan is the best combination of all martial art n we love Shotokan with hearts
Старый добрый "Шотокан" - лучший из всех японских видов искуств! Довелось и мне когда то...
Nothing better then traditional Shotokan karate
I studied Shotokan Karate with sensei Bruce Kanegai in Simi Valley Ca in the 80's.. He was also my art teacher at Simi High School.. What a great man.
SHOTOKAN Karate is a very good style. I think its basics are unique

Shotokan is best karate.. 💖💖💖
Okinawan Karate is not that bad.
I never knew the folding chair was a traditional Japanese weapon!
